    You can get the weapon Eleum Loyce pretty easily since I don't think Alsanna needs to be alive for the Ivory King fight, it drops from killing her with a ranged attack and you could use any curved sword you want until you get it, literally just need 1 mil for ivory ing dlc and to beat the lion. Could be really cool

    I'm so glad that you make your characters actually look handsome or pretty unlike most content creators that make the most hideous monstrosities

    bandit axe was my go to for soul level 1 run, extremely underated weapon, incredible moveset for pvp too

    The Bandit Axe was the main weapon I used the first time I played DS2. It's just so reliable and since I love using axes in games like these, this was a big win for me.

    • @Bob-jh6xt
      @Bob-jh6xt Před 4 měsíci +2

      Yeah, for me, I used the bastard sword up until I was struggling on iron keep, then I tried out some other weapons I had, tested out the bandit axe, then married it for the rest of my playthrough.

  • @PlurpleHD
    @PlurpleHD Před 8 měsíci +13

    I'm interested to see you do a Powerstance Mace build, or even just a Powerstance Dagger build. Dual Maces are crazy strong for basically the whole game, I remember doing that for my very first playthrough and it made the game a lot easier :)

  • @OmneAurumNon
    @OmneAurumNon Před 8 měsíci +21

    Would you ever consider doing a one shot all boss challenge? I'd love to see how you would approach that

  • @stargazer6556
    @stargazer6556 Před 8 měsíci +8

    Axes are my favourite weapon class in this game. So I'm so glad to see you doing them justice.

  • @Houldey
    @Houldey Před 8 měsíci +9

    I love the dragonslayers crescent axe - i know there's nothing really that special about it, but i did a playthrough powerstancing them and loved it. The design of it is just sick imo, would to to have a replica made someday :)

  • @fatcat1697
    @fatcat1697 Před 8 měsíci +11

    For an even faster axe thats around as good as bandit axe, you can buy the battle axe from the starting smith. Its cheap, scales almost as good as bandit (scales a little less with str, but a bit more with dex), and you get it EVEN FASTER.
    Was dual wielding bandit and battle axes for a good while.

    • @Bob-jh6xt
      @Bob-jh6xt Před 4 měsíci +2

      If you want to save yourself a handful of souls, you can attack the door above the second bonfire in forest of fallen giants to break it, and inside you can get a hand axe for free

  • @vonolemaxle3040
    @vonolemaxle3040 Před 8 měsíci +3

    This is the run! That damage from an early weapon is insane. Easy to follow, no fluff, just slice and dice.
    Been a while to see some OP damage, my guy. The challenge runs(bow, crossbow, pyro, hex) were good but the pure brute damage run is still the best.

  • @PyramidgodMeekman6
    @PyramidgodMeekman6 Před 8 měsíci +1

    Your videos really help to get me through a really dark, difficult and borderline hopeless time in my life.
    Thank you for what you do!

  • @tstanmusic4061
    @tstanmusic4061 Před 8 měsíci +3

    Bro you gotta do a dagger build. I know it sounds CRAZY but I’ve seen crazy DPS outputs against slow bosses. And the fact that your attacks are fast and you can parry character enemies and get massive counter multipliers with the dagger honestly makes me see the dagger as one of the best weapons in the game. Even against the faster enemies if you use the right resins/infusions or start with a sorcerer and get a second dagger and high int off the rip for your magic/dark weapon buffs. And once you get sunlight blade or sacred oath. My guy you wanna talk about DPS fam lol. Your vids are dope bro. DS2 deserves its love too. 💯

    I've tried twin Dragonslayer's Axes in my first NG run and it was a very nice change of pace to the normal two handed greatsword/greataxe/scythe/whatever gameplay. Power stance really makes weapons and build combos waaay more interesting in this game

  • @tortoiseknight8438
    @tortoiseknight8438 Před 8 měsíci

    Lots of weapons share this moveset! You can mix in heavy short hammers or axes and they swing faster than they should
    I use craftsman hammer and gyrm greataxe the gyrm greataxe does around 750 uninfused
    Two of them have their own unique moveset powerstanced and non powerstanced
    Love the videos homie! Keep this shit up bludclot

  • @Unknown-gj7yp

    Thanks a lot for the content you made, im appreciate it so much. By the way, i want to ask you to use RTSR more often since all bosses' move sets are well known. Imagine seeing fume knight VS double sacred chime and rtsr. He would be just erased from reality. Same with any other weapons. If you care about brightbugs then just use save dumps, noone will even take a look on that :D
